La Sartania — Restaurant in Salerno

La Sartania was an unexpected gem. Angelo, the owner, made us feel immediately welcome and proceeded to tell us what was what as there was no menu, which was refreshing. There were only four dishes to choose from, which, as there were limited options, made it quick and easy to choose. We started with the anti-pasta (mozzarella, sausage, ham, zucchini, peppers, fish, potatoes); which was just incredible. Simple, fresh ingredients, bursting with flavour and surprise. To follow, fusilli pasta with pork...delicious, especially when a little of the homemade chilli sauce and grated cheese were thrown into the mix. To finish, a selection of desserts were presented.

We had such a great time! We had wine and ate to heart's content. Go!!...

We had a wonderful dining experience. We were not given a menu and the host started serving us food when we sat down. At the end he asked us how much we thought the meals were worth. He decided to charge us 25 EUR per plate for the 4 adults and 8 kids in our group. Not a great value, but not a rip off either. The food was great and it was fun to eat family style. If you want seafood, this is not your place, but if you want good mountain food in a relaxed atmosphere, I'd recommend it. It was the highlight of our...
